The functional anatomy of the cornea of the Shorthead lamprey, Mordacia mordax (Mordaciidae, Agnatha): A comparison between downstream and upstream migrants

Journal of Morphology, Volume 284, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023
The functional morphology of the cornea in the Shorthead lamprey Mordacia mordax is examined in both downstream and upstream migrants, where they encounter a range of environmental conditions during its anadromous adult lifecycle. This quantitative study reveals significant and unique differences, reflecting developmental adaptations of the protective ...

Amazon Hydrology From Space: Scientific Advances and Future Challenges

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 59, Issue 4, December 2021., 2021
Abstract As the largest river basin on Earth, the Amazon is of major importance to the world's climate and water resources. Over the past decades, advances in satellite‐based remote sensing (RS) have brought our understanding of its terrestrial water cycle and the associated hydrological processes to a new era.

Movements of common bream Abramis brama in a highly connected, lowland wetland reveal sub‐populations with diverse migration strategies

Freshwater Biology, Volume 66, Issue 7, Page 1410-1422, July 2021., 2021
Abstract Studies suggest the migratory behaviours of potamodromous fishes can be highly variable in barrier‐free systems, where differing movement types enable populations to exploit a wide range of food and space resources. This intra‐population diversity in spatial and temporal resource use is important to our ecological understanding of fish ...

A review on cobia, Rachycentron canadum, aquaculture

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 691-709, June 2021., 2021
Abstract Cobia, Rachycentron canadum, is an important species for aquaculture worldwide. Production technology from egg to market was established in the early 1990s and continues to be perfected to this day. This species exhibits extraordinary scope for growth and can reach between 4 and 8 kg in 1 year, with females growing almost twice as fast and ...

Aquatic food security:insights into challenges and solutions from an analysis of interactions between fisheries, aquaculture, food safety, human health, fish and human welfare, economy and environment [PDF]

, 2016
Fisheries and aquaculture production, imports, exports and equitability of distribution determine the supply of aquatic food to people. Aquatic food security is achieved when a food supply is sufficient, safe, sustainable, shockproof and sound ...

Temporal Patterns and Drivers of Freshwater Fish Beta‐Diversity of Gravel Pit Lakes

Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 34, Issue 4, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems are in the midst of a biodiversity crisis marked by non‐random and often dramatic shifts in fish community composition. Yet, the patterns and underlying ecological drivers of these community dynamics within gravel pit lakes—widespread artificial lakes with significant socioeconomic and ecological value—remain understudied.
